On this news, Rentokil’s stock price fell $2.64, or 9.3%, to close at $25.61 per ADS on April 18, 2024, thereby injuring investors. Then, on September11. 2024, Rentokil issued an unscheduled “Trading Update,” disclosing that it now expected only 1% North America organic revenue growth for the second half of 2024, explaining that “the trading performance in July and August was lower than anticipated,” and that “there has also been some modest disruption to organic growth from branch integration.” The Company further stated that the issues were “a manifestation of execution challenges.” On this news, Rentokil’s stock price fell $6.65, or 21%, to close at $24.95 per ADS on September 11, 2024, thereby injuring investors further. The complaint filed in this class action alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose to investors that: (1) Rentokil experienced levels of disruption in the early pilots of the Terminix integration; (2) Rentokil experienced significant, ongoing, self-inflicted execution challenges integrating Terminix; (3) the disruption and execution challenges imperiled Rentokil’s integration plan for Terminix; (4) Rentokil and Terminix were still two separate businesses that were not yet integrated; (5) Rentokil’s failure to integrate Terminix negatively impacted the Company’s business and operations, particularly organic revenue growth in North America; and (6) as a result, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.

Luigi Nicholas Mangione emerged from a patrol car, spun toward reporters and shouted something partly unintelligible referring to an "insult to the intelligence of the American people" while deputies pushed him inside. Prosecutors were beginning to take steps to bring Mangione back to New York while new details emerged about his life and how he was captured. The 26-year-old Ivy League graduate from a prominent Maryland real estate family was charged with murder hours after he was arrested in the Manhattan killing of Brian Thompson, who led the largest U.S. medical insurance company. At the brief hearing, defense lawyer Thomas Dickey informed the court that Mangione will not waive extradition to New York but instead wants a hearing on the issue. Mangione was denied bail after prosecutors said he was too dangerous to be released. Mangione, wearing an orange prison jumpsuit, mostly stared straight ahead at the hearing, occasionally consulting papers, rocking in his chair or looking back at the gallery. At one point, he began to speak to respond to the court discussion but was quieted by his lawyer. A law enforcement bulletin obtained by The Associated Press said that at the time of his arrest, Mangione was carrying a handwritten document expressing anger with what he called "parasitic" health insurance companies and a disdain for corporate greed and power. He wrote that the U.S. has the most expensive health care system in the world and that profits of major corporations continue to rise while "our life expectancy" does not, according to the bulletin. In social media posts, Mangione called "Unabomber" Ted Kaczynski a "political revolutionary," according to the police bulletin. Kaczynski carried out a series of bombings while railing against modern society and technology. Mangione remained jailed in Pennsylvania, where he was initially charged with possession of an unlicensed firearm, forgery and providing false identification to police. Manhattan prosecutors have obtained an arrest warrant, a step that could help expedite his extradition from Pennsylvania. McDonald's customer recognizes suspect Mangione was arrested in Altoona, Pennsylvania — about 370 kilometers (about 230 miles) west of New York City — after a McDonald's customer recognized him and notified an employee, authorities said. Officers found him sitting at a back table, wearing a blue medical mask and looking at a laptop, according to a Pennsylvania police criminal complaint. He initially gave them a fake ID, but when an officer asked Mangione whether he'd been to New York recently, he "became quiet and started to shake," the complaint says. When he pulled his mask down at the officers' request, "we knew that was our guy," Officer Tyler Frye said. Images of Mangione released Tuesday by Pennsylvania State Police showed him pulling down his mask in the corner of the McDonald's while holding what appeared to be hash browns and wearing a winter jacket and beanie. In another photo from a holding cell, he stood unsmiling with rumpled hair. New York Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch said Mangione was carrying a gun like the one used to kill Thompson and the same fake ID the suspected shooter had used to check into a New York hostel, along with a passport and other fraudulent IDs. New York Police Department Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny said Mangione also had a three-page, handwritten document that shows "some ill will toward corporate America." A law enforcement official who wasn't authorized to discuss the investigation publicly and spoke with The Associated Press on condition of anonymity said the document included a line in which Mangione claimed to have acted alone. "To the Feds, I'll keep this short, because I do respect what you do for our country. To save you a lengthy investigation, I state plainly that I wasn't working with anyone," the document said, according to the official. It also had a line that said, "I do apologize for any strife or traumas but it had to be done. Frankly, these parasites simply had it coming." Thompson, 50, was killed last Wednesday as he walked alone to a Manhattan hotel for an investor conference. Police quickly came to consider the shooting as a targeted attack by a gunman who appeared to wait for Thompson, came up behind him and fired a 9 mm pistol. Investigators have said "delay," "deny" and "depose" were written on ammunition found near Thompson's body. The words mimic "delay, deny, defend," a phrase used to criticize the insurance industry. From surveillance video, New York investigators determined the shooter quickly fled the city, likely by bus. Suspect's family prays for victim's family A grandson of a wealthy, self-made real estate developer and philanthropist, Mangione is a cousin of a current Maryland state legislator. Valedictorian at his elite Baltimore prep school, he went on to earn undergraduate and graduate degrees in computer science in 2020 from the University of Pennsylvania, a spokesperson said. "Our family is shocked and devastated by Luigi's arrest," Mangione's family said in a statement posted on social media late Monday by his cousin, Maryland Delegate Nino Mangione. "We offer our prayers to the family of Brian Thompson and we ask people to pray for all involved." From January to June 2022, Luigi Mangione lived at Surfbreak, a "co-living" space at the edge of touristy Waikiki in Honolulu. Like other residents of the shared penthouse catering to remote workers, Mangione underwent a background check, said Josiah Ryan, a spokesperson for owner and founder R.J. Martin. "Luigi was just widely considered to be a great guy. There were no complaints," Ryan said. "There was no sign that might point to these alleged crimes they're saying he committed." At Surfbreak, Martin learned Mangione had severe back pain from childhood that interfered with many aspects of his life, from surfing to romance, Ryan said. Mangione left Surfbreak to get surgery on the mainland, Ryan said, then later returned to Honolulu and rented an apartment. Martin stopped hearing from Mangione six months to a year ago.

Ex-Colorado footballer Bloom dedicates time to fulfilling wishes for older adultsIsrael and Lebanon both told the White House on Monday that despite the recent flare-ups on the border they are committed to the ceasefire agreement and want it to continue, sources with knowledge of the issue told U.S. news portal Axios. The Biden administration has been concerned the fragile ceasefire in Lebanon could unravel after Israel and Hezbollah exchanged fire in recent days, U.S. officials said. The Biden administration has privately expressed concern to the Israelis about several of their strike in Lebanon in recent days. "The Israelis have been playing a dangerous game in recent days," a U.S. official told Axios. The Israeli Air Force conducted several airstrikes in recent days against alleged Hezbollah operatives in southern Lebanon. On Monday, Hezbollah fired two mortar shells towards Israeli positions in the occupied Shebaa Farms. It was the first Hezbollah attack since the ceasefire was announced last week. Israel retaliated with a wider attack later on Monday, striking "Hezbollah terrorists, dozens of launchers, and terrorist infrastructure throughout Lebanon," the Israeli army said in a statement. Israeli Minister of Strategic Affairs Ron Dermer met on Monday at the White House with national security adviser Jake Sullivan and told him Israel wants to maintain the ceasefire, one Israeli official and a source with knowledge of the meeting said. Sullivan told Dermer Israel "has the right under international law to defend itself against direct threats from Lebanon," the source with knowledge of the meeting told Axios. U.S. President Joe Biden's senior adviser Amos Hochstein spoke on Monday to Lebanese and Israeli officials who stressed their commitment to the ceasefire, the source said. The source added that Hochstein told both Israeli and Lebanese officials that the U.S.-led ceasefire monitoring mechanism established under the agreement should be notified of violations so that it can address them. U.S. General Jasper Jeffers arrived in Beirut last week to serve as the military co-chair for the implementation and monitoring mechanism, CENTCOM said in a statement. The mechanism will also include French military officers and representative of the Lebanese Armed Forces, the Israeli army and UNIFIL.Media and entertainment company Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc’'s ($WBD) shares rose to their highest level in a year after the company announced corporate restructuring to capitalize on evolving strategic opportunities. The New York-based company said its board has authorized the company to implement a new corporate structure to “enhance its flexibility and create potential opportunities to unlock additional shareholder value.” Under the new corporate structure, Warner Bros. Discovery will serve as the parent company for two operating divisions, namely “Global Linear Networks” and “Streaming & Studios.” The Global Linear Networks segment will include the company’s legacy cable business, which operates its networks such as TNT, CNN, TBS, Food Network and HGTV. On the other hand, the Streaming & Studios segment will be a globally scaled streaming platform, and short film and entertainment studios. This will involve the merger of the Max and Discovery+ streaming services and HBO, along with its Warner Bros. movie and TV production operations. CEO David Zaslav said, “We continue to prioritize ensuring our Global Linear Networks business is well positioned to continue to drive free cash flow, while our Streaming & Studios business focuses on driving growth by telling the world's most compelling stories.” “Our new corporate structure better aligns our organization and enhances our flexibility with potential future strategic opportunities across an evolving media landscape, help us build on our momentum and create opportunities as we evaluate all avenues to deliver significant shareholder value.” The company said it expects to start the foundational steps immediately and complete the implementation by mid-2025. Warner Bros. Discovery’s cable TV business has suffered, in line with the media industry trends, as consumers continue to cut the cord and advertisers shift their ad dollars to digital media. On the other hand, the streaming business is thriving, as it had 110.5 million subscribers at the end of the third quarter. Sentiment toward Warner Bros. Discovery stock improved from ‘neutral’ a day ago to ‘extremely bullish’ (92/100), the highest in more than a year. The corporate restructuring set retail tongues wagging, sending message volume to ‘extremely high’ levels. At last check, Warner Bros. Discovery shares were up 15.16% at $12.46, marking the highest since Dec. 21, 2023. The stock is down about 5% for the year. For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.<

JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel unleashed its largest wave of airstrikes across Lebanon since agreeing to a ceasefire with Hezbollah last week, killing at least 11 people on Monday after the Lebanese militant group fired a volley of projectiles as a warning over what it said were Israeli truce violations . The projectiles were apparently the first time that Hezbollah took aim at Israeli forces after the 60-day ceasefire went into effect last Wednesday. The increasingly fragile truce aimed to end more than a year of war between Hezbollah and Israel — part of a wider regional conflict sparked by the devastating Israel-Hamas war in Gaza . In the United States, President-elect Donald Trump demanded the immediate release of Israeli hostages held by the Palestinian militant Hamas group in Gaza, saying on social media that if they are not freed before he takes office in January there would be “HELL TO PAY.” It was not immediately clear whether Trump was threatening to directly involve the U.S. military in Israel’s ongoing war in Gaza. The U.S. has given Israel crucial military and diplomatic support throughout the nearly 15-month conflict. Lebanon’s Health Ministry said an Israeli airstrike on the southern village of Haris killed five people and wounded two while another airstrike on the village of Tallousa killed four and also wounded two. Israel's military carried out a string of airstrikes late Monday against what it said were Hezbollah fighters, infrastructure and rocket launchers across Lebanon, in response to Hezbollah firing two projectiles toward Mount Dov — a disputed Israeli-held territory known as Shebaa Farms in Lebanon where the borders of Lebanon, Syria, and Israel meet. Israel said the projectiles fell in open areas and no injuries were reported. Hezbollah said in a statement that it fired on an Israeli military position in the area as a “defensive and warning response” after what it called “repeated violations” of the ceasefire deal by Israel. It said complaints to mediators tasked with monitoring the ceasefire “were futile in stopping these violations.” Before the Hezbollah projectiles, Israeli carried out at least four airstrikes and an artillery barrage in southern Lebanon, including a drone strike that killed a person on a motorcycle, according to Lebanese state media. Another strike killed a corporal in the Lebanese security services. Israel has said its strikes are in response to unspecified Hezbollah violations, and that under the ceasefire deal it reserves the right to retaliate. Lebanon’s parliament speaker, Nabih Berri, accused Israel of violating the truce more than 50 times in recent days by launching airstrikes, demolishing homes near the border and violating Lebanon's airspace. Officials in the U.S. — which along with France helped broker the truce and heads a commission meant to monitor adherence to the deal — played down the significance of Israeli strikes. White House national security spokesman John Kirby said, “Largely speaking, the ceasefire is holding.” “We’ve gone from dozens of strikes down to one a day maybe two a day,” Kirby told reporters, referring to Israeli strikes. “We’re going to keep trying and see what we can do to get it down to zero.” Under the deal, Iran-backed Hezbollah has 60 days to withdraw its fighters and infrastructure from southern Lebanon. During that time, Israeli troops are also to withdraw to their side of the border. In a post on his Truth Social site, Trump called for Palestinian militants to free all of the roughly 100 Israeli hostages still held inside Gaza , around two-thirds of whom are believed to be alive. If not, Trump said, “Those responsible will be hit harder than anybody has been hit in the long and storied History of the United States of America. RELEASE THE HOSTAGES NOW!” Hours earlier, the Israeli government confirmed the death of Omer Neutra, a dual U.S.-Israeli citizen, whose body is still believed to be held by Hamas in Gaza, according to the Israeli government. The Biden administration is mounting a last-ditch effort to try to restart talks between Israel and Hamas. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office declined to comment on Trump's post though President Isaac Herzog welcomed it. In Gaza, meanwhile, alarm is mounting over increasing hunger. The amount of food allowed in by Israel has plunged over the past two months, compounded by a decision Sunday by the United Nations to halt aid deliveries from the main crossing into the territory because of the threat of armed gangs looting convoys. Experts have already warned of famine in the northernmost part of Gaza , which Israeli forces have almost completely isolated since early October, saying they're fighting regrouped Hamas militants there. Displaced families have set up tents surrounded by piles of garbage on the streets of Gaza City. Bilal Marouf, 55, said he and 11 family members fled the Israeli offensive “barefoot and naked.” “We had nothing. Hunger and thirst killed us, and we did not have a single shekel, nor clothes, nor a mattress, nor a blanket,” he said, speaking near his tent. Israel’s campaign in Gaza, triggered by Hamas’ Oct 7, 2023 attack on southern Israel, has driven almost the entire population of the territory from their homes. Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians now live in squalid tent camps, relying on international aid. The Israeli military said it allowed 40 trucks carrying 600 tons of flour for the World Food Program to enter the southern Gaza Strip on Sunday night, as well as 16 other food trucks. Israel has said it is working to increase the flow of aid. November saw an increase in the average number of humanitarian trucks it let into Gaza, up to 77 daily from 57 the month before, according to official Israeli figures. But the levels are still nearly the lowest of the entire 15-month war. And the U.N. says less than half of that actually reaches Palestinians because Israeli military restrictions, fighting and robberies make it too dangerous to deliver the aid. The World Food Program was able to only deliver aid to some 300,000 Palestinians in November across the Gaza Strip due to ongoing Israeli military offensives and the looting of convoys, Carl Skau, WFP’s deputy executive director, said Monday. In a tent camp in the central Gaza town of Deir al-Balah, Palestinians lined up at makeshift mud ovens trying to buy a few loaves of flatbread for their families. With the price of flour mounting because of scarcity, the bakers — women displaced from further north — said they could bake less bread, and families could afford far less. “They divide them to their children, one loaf every day,” said one woman baker, Wafaa al-Attar.

Elevating Excellence: The All-New Tenorshare Brand Website Unveiled

Rams finally ran the ball well in New Orleans, and it kept them in the playoff raceStock market today: Wall Street hits records despite tariff talkMany Australians say they dread Christmas parties because of the pressure to drink, with those choosing not to drink feeling judged and excluded for not throwing back beers with their colleagues. or signup to continue reading Research from Indeed found a third of Australians feel there is too much emphasis on alcohol at work Christmas parties, and one in four are afraid of doing something embarrassing due to alcohol. Ruth Limkin, who hasn't been drinking alcohol for several years, said Australians often don't know how to react to those who don't drink. "People are really confused when they offer you something to drink and you ask for something alcohol-free," she said. "That's one of the reasons actually that I often take something because you don't want people to feel uncomfortable." Psychologist at an Australian rehab clinic Gavin Brown said people are more likely to rely on alcohol during the holiday season as they try to navigate workloads and pressures to attend Christmas events. "The social pressure of drinking alcohol can make people feel judged or excluded if they decline to drink, leading to feelings of guilt or inadequacy," he said. "This then trickles into professional life because people believe that they are perceived differently by their co-workers, or even their bosses, for not participating. "For people in recovery from alcohol dependencies, work Christmas parties can be particularly daunting because they almost always centre on behaviour they are working hard to avoid." Researchers from an Australian health group suggested senior workforce commonly use alcohol as a coping mechanism or to increase confidence in social settings. More than one in three Australian managers choose to have a drink at the end of the day with many saying they're more comfortable at social events after a beer, according to the study. Ms Limkin said taking a sober approach means remembering everything the day after. The next day when you're waking up, you're able to fully embrace the day and not worry about whether or not you've got a hangover. "Also means you can eat more actual dessert because you're not drinking your calories." Dr Brown recommended framing Christmas parties around an activity like sport, spa treatments or escape rooms to reduce pressure on alcohol consumption. People are likely to drink less if involved in an activity, he said. Ms Limkin said at social events. "Sometimes I don't even say, I don't drink at all," she said. "I just say I'm not drinking today." For , Ms Limkin recommended taking things one step at a time. "When you get to an event, if someone's like, 'oh, you're not drinking' or 'what can I offer you', I just say I'm gonna start with something alcohol-free," she said. "I actually don't intend to then go on to anything with alcohol, but it just makes people feel more comfortable for whatever reason." She also advised bringing good alcohol-free options that are more than soft drinks and mineral water. Lucy is a reporter for the Canberra Times.

Here's Why Zoom Video Communications Stock Dropped Today

How major US stock indexes fared Tuesday, 11/26/2024Google is ramping up its push into smart glasses and augmented reality headgear, taking on rivals Apple and Meta with help from its sophisticated Gemini artificial intelligence. The internet titan on Thursday unveiled an Android XR operating system created in a collaboration with Samsung, which will use it in a device being built in what is called internally "Project Moohan," according to Google. The software is designed to power augmented and virtual reality experiences enhanced with artificial intelligence, XR vice president Shahram Izadi said in a blog post. "With headsets, you can effortlessly switch between being fully immersed in a virtual environment and staying present in the real world," Izadi said. "You can fill the space around you with apps and content, and with Gemini, our AI assistant, you can even have conversations about what you're seeing or control your device." Google this week announced the launch of Gemini 2.0, its most advanced artificial intelligence model to date, as the world's tech giants race to take the lead in the fast-developing technology. CEO Sundar Pichai said the new model would mark what the company calls "a new agentic era" in AI development, with AI models designed to understand and make decisions about the world around you. Android XR infused with Gemini promises to put digital assistants into eyewear, tapping into what users are seeing and hearing. An AI "agent," the latest Silicon Valley trend, is a digital helper that is supposed to sense surroundings, make decisions, and take actions to achieve specific goals. "Gemini can understand your intent, helping you plan, research topics and guide you through tasks," Izadi said. "Android XR will first launch on headsets that transform how you watch, work and explore." The Android XR release was a preview for developers so they can start building games and other apps for headgear, ideally fun or useful enough to get people to buy the hardware. This is not Google's first foray into smart eyewear. Its first offering, Google Glass, debuted in 2013 only to be treated as an unflattering tech status symbol and met with privacy concerns due to camera capabilities. The market has evolved since then, with Meta investing heavily in a Quest virtual reality headgear line priced for mainstream adoption and Apple hitting the market with pricey Vision Pro "spacial reality" gear. Google plans to soon begin testing prototype Android XR-powered glasses with a small group of users. Google will also adapt popular apps such as YouTube, Photos, Maps, and Google TV for immersive experiences using Android XR, according to Izadi. Gemini AI in glasses will enable tasks like directions and language translations, he added. "It's all within your line of sight, or directly in your ear," Izadi said. gc/dw
